As some of you know, i posted two threads on here asking why the hell was a i hearing screeching noise coming from my engine. Some people thought it would of been my alternator tensioner. Well on saturday while i was driving, my alternator quit working... drove the car home, it was a 20 mile drive too.. Popped my hood and saw that the tensioner itself came completely loose. idk how either so don't ask me. tightened it down started the car. immediately heard a loud grinding noise, so bad it vibrated the whole fucking car. i said screw it. im going to sleep. did some research on here. and in the morning i went outside, i tried my luck to see if it really was the crank pulley. i read on here that our crank pulleys will fail after a period of time. yea, it whas that. that bitch wiggled so damn loose. here are the pics. ENJOY...


as you can tell, the belt isnt on the pulley


BAM



i would highly invest in buying a spare one people. haha

it to work, welded some tabs (low heat of course) from the outer ring to the

inside of the pulley...so far two months and counting and everything is ok.
